The Adventures of Prince Achmed with Sink live score 03/03/2018

An absolutely magical night and a fantastic way to release Fireside Film Club into the wild!

Sink were incredible! The band's amazing array of instruments and outlandish musical techniques really brought to life the intricate characters and exotic scenery in Reiniger's film.. and the beautiful acoustics of Fireside's arches coupled with absolute silence outside on the streets of Edinburgh made for a very unique and special atmosphere!

A very big thank you to everyone who provided various bits, pieces and popcorn machines, and to the Fireside team for heroically starting fires in snowstorms and serving delicious food and booze to our hardcore cinema lovers!

Keep an eye out for our next event - info coming very soon!!!
